Hello Cynthia, I'm having surgery on 12-10 at St. Vincent by Dr. Kaderabek. I'm scared too, but I can't imagine wasting anymore of my life being this heavy and uncomfortable. I'll kick myself in the butt if I don't go thru with it. I hope to see you at the hospital on 12-11.

Cynthia, Haven't heard how you are doing. I hope you have decided to proceed. When I think of the "worst" that can happen, I always remind myself of the worst that "will" happen if I don't have the surgery. I don't know if you are a person of faith, but if you are, trust in God that he will bring you through. Ask him to distil your fears and give you peace. God Bless you in what ever you decide

Cynthia, only you can decide to have this surgery! That being said, I think you will find that it is the best decision that you could make for yourself! My surgery was 8/28/01 and I have no regrets. I'm down 50 pounds in less than 3 months and am now out of the morbidly obese category forever!! Don't be scared -- do whatever you need to do to calm yourself. I listened to healing CDs before my surgery and even during my surgery (I took my Walkman into surgery). They helped me to stay calm and focused. Just do what works for you! Congrats on getting this far! You can do it!
